“Random Nancy” was actually created by Princess Sparkle Pony for his excellent blog. This Guy Gilchrist person, who ripped off the idea, ruins these panels by adding bendé dots and color to a B&W panel.

Though the mantle of Nancy has been passed down over the years, Ernie Bushmiller created Nancy and drew her for decades. Though I enjoy this new collection of classic Nancy moments, I think it’s a shame that Bushmiller’s genius isn’t given credit here. First, it’s the right thing to do. In this age of “reblogging,” a lot of today’s artists are already getting ripped off by seeing their work reproduced without credit—why reinforce and legitimize that trend here? Second, knowing Bushmiller’s name would allow new Nancy fans to look into Nancy’s history; Fantagraphics has several volumes of classic Nancy strips out already, with a new one coming in the fall. Giving credit to the pre-Gilchrist Nancy artists would help new fans discover more and enjoy more Nancy.

espy, you’re correct. We will be crediting the artist in each panel below the panel each day. It will take a couple days to implement. However, we acknowledge Ernie in our description of the panel itself. As the “Guy” who has carried the torch the last twenty years, there is no one more in awe of Ernie.

Thank you! Bringing Ernie’s art back in a way that hopefully it can be enjoyed by not only the purist but the casual fan or brand new fan is a passion of mine. We will keep tweaking this and working on this. We love Nancy! and we hope you will too!

Guy, since you’re bringing these strips back from the 50’s, is there any chance of bringing back the ones from the 30’s? You could put them on as “Nancy Rewind”. That way, they’d be right under the current Nancy strips.

About Random Acts of Nancy

In the 81+ years that Ernie Bushmiller's Nancy and her pals have been cavorting around the funny papers, there have been many surreal, bizarre, manic, unexplainable panels of fun!

Every day, we will bring you one of those moments. If you are dazed, confused, and don't have any clue why and how you are being entertained … You are now a true Nancy fan. We of "Three Rocks" salute you! Brought to you by Guy Gilchrist and John Lotshaw.
